jojo - thanks again for talking to me
Question: is there an "instant messaging" type of communication with other people such as yourself available through this site? If I could find someone to actually have a real-time chat with, I think i could actually get up the courage to open up ... which is what I think is going to be the step that I'll need to take to get up the courage to go to one of the meetings that it sounds like I'll be going to!
